The first clip from the Amazing Spider-man has arrived, via the viral site markofthespider-man.com. If you were hoping for an effects filled fight scene you’ll be disappointed, as it simply features Peter Parker trying to get into Gwen Stacey’s apartment building, but having trouble with a snotty, overly security conscious doorman. Here’s the synopsis: ‘Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) is an outcast high schooler who was abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben (Martin Sheen) and Aunt May (Sally Field). Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. Peter is also finding his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone), and together, they struggle with love, commitment, and secrets. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents’ disappearance – leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors (Rhys Ifans), his father’s former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors’ alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.’ The film’s out July 4th.
The Amazing Spider-man International Trailer
Anticipation for The Amazing Spider-man jumped considerably when a new, rather spectacular trailer was launched a couple of weeks ago. Now a new international version of that trailer has been released, which features some new footage from the big summer movie. Billed as ‘untold stories’ from Spider-man rather than a remake of Sam Raimi’s movies, Andrew Garfield takes over the web-slinging and goes back to high school. It’ll hit cinemas July 3rd.
New Amazing Spider-man Trailer Arrives
Director Marc Webb is keen to sell The Amazing Spider-man as ‘untold stories’ about the superhero rather than a remake of the Sam Raimi series, but the more we see, the more it looks like a very different beast to when Tobey Maguire was behind the mask. For a start it’s getting back to the wisecracking Peter Parker rather than the po-faced one of Raimi. Now a new trailer is letting us have our best look yet at the film, introducing us more to the story and action, as well as giving us our first look at the villainous Lizard. It certainly looks like it’s gonna be spectacular! The movie hits cinemas July 3rd.
First Photo Of Amazing Spider-man’s Lizard?
We may have got our first photo of Amazing Spider-man bad guy, Lizard (played by Rhys Ifans), but it’s come from a slightly unusual source. Images have popped up on line of tie-in toys, which include what appears to be the first photo we’ve seen of the Lizard (which you can see above). The other toy, which is below, seems to confirm a rumour that the film would include a SWAT team of half-man/half-lizrd creatures.
The movie’s out July 4th.

Getting Angsty In New Amazing Spider-man Pics
The studios are using the end of the year to try and get film fans excited about what’s coming in 2012, and one of the films Sony is hoping film fans will turn up in droves for is their superhero reboot, The Amazing Spider-man.
Now the studio has released some new images via the movie’s Facebook page, which you can see above and below. It’s all looking a little angsty as Peter Parker heads back to high school and turns from Tobey Maguire into Andrew Garfield. Here’s the official synopsis: ‘Like most teenagers his age, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. In his journey to put the pieces of his past together he uncovers a secret that his father held…a secret that will ultimately shape his destiny as Spider-Man. This is the first in a series of movies that tells a different side of the Peter Parker story. On July 3rd, 2012, the untold story begins.’
The film stars Andrew Garfield (Peter Parker), Emma Stone (Gwen Stacy), Denis Leary (George Stacy), Rhys Ifans (Curt Conners), Martin Sheen (Ben Parker), and Sally Field (May Parker), and is directed by Marc Webb.

Three Amazing Spider-man Banners Surface
It seems Sony is still working out the best way to market the Amazing Spider-man, as while the teaser poster that arrived at the weekend was very dark and moody, these new banners, which Comic Book Movie says have been created for internation marketing and much brighter and closer to what you’d expect from the superhero.
Many criticised the teaser poster for being too much like The Dark Knight and suggesting the upcoming Spidey reboot would be a downer, so you may well discover future marketing gets a lot brighter.

Amazing Spider-man Poster Arrives
The first official teaser poster for The Amazing Spider-man has arrived via Superherohype, and while some may think it’s too dark and moody, we reckon it’s all kinds of cool. The tagline of ‘The Untold Story’ is kind of interesting too, as it suggests Sony realises there may be difficulties rebooting a franchise so soon after end of the Sam Raimi series. Early reports suggested the film would essentially be a parallel story to the one Raimi told, although there will definitely be major differenced (not least that Peter Parker is getting mechanical web-slingers rather than organic ones.
The movie stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone and Rhys Ifans and hits cinemas on July 4th, 2012.

Amazing Spider-man Lizard Concept Art Surfaces
For quite a long time we’ve known The Lizard would be making an appearance in The Amazing Spider-man, but we haven’t had much clue as to what he’d look like. That’s slightly changed in the last few days after pics emerged of what appears to be a Lizard Pez Dispenser tied into the movie, and now the Russian site, Spidermedia.ru, has managed to get hold of what seems to be concept art of the villain. Assuming it’s corrent, it’s certainly a good mix of man and reptile!
Rhys Ifans is playing Dr. Curt Connor, who turns into The Lizard, and the film hits cinemas July 4th, 2012.
